Sy stars at home

The Anne Bass directed documentary, Dancing Across Borders, eight years in the making and showing the story of Cambodian ballet dancer Sokvannara 'Sy' Sar and his rise from a dance troupe at Angkor to the stage of one of America's most prominent ballet companies will be shown on TVK Channel 1 in Cambodia for the first time tomorrow (Saturday 3 September) at 9pm. I'll be in English with Khmer subtitles. It's a truly inspiring story and will propel Sy, an otherwise unknown name, to audiences in his home country. Find out more about the film here.
